Will this timer remote allow my camera to go on standby to save battery while I am trying to do a time lapse over a long period of time?

Unsure of your camera but I would say no. Most batteries will last a few hours of continuous use

Depends on the camera. If the camera has WiFi and communicates with a smartphone, use the smartphone app. If the camera has a cable shutter release, use that. If the camera only has an IR remote, that could be a problem. Otherwise, use the timer.

Yes. If the camera shutter speed is NOT set to "bulb" or similar and you lock the remote shutter in the on position, it will perform continuous shooting. However depending on the length of your exposure, a better option might be to use the timers built in delay timer, as longer exposures take more processing time.

No, I am afraid it does not work with the Canon EOS M, because the EOS M does not have an input for external timer remote controller.

If you unplug, timer has a rechargable back up battery inside incase power out or disconnected by accident, to save the same setting.

Yes. When you set the timer switch duration, it will reset every time the power to the switch turns off, in anticipation of the next "on" cycle.

Yes, so long as the power stays on it retains its clock and timer settings.The batteries are only to preserve settings in case of a power outage.

Yes, but in your case you do not need the remote on off switch. A regular appliance timer will do.

On my camera I am able to choose "Bulb" setting which allows long exposures. Using my remote I activate the opening of the shutter, using it again closes the shutter. There is only one button on the remote. Remember to point the remote at the infrared receiver on the camera. On mine I had to point at the front of the camera.

Absolutely. I often use this remote for star trail photos, where I set the camera to BULB, and the release manages the exposure. I can easily do &gt;30 second exposure, and often have left the camera and remote set up shoot a series of 5-minute exposures for as many as I need to get the desired effect, up to the limit for the remote.

Yes, the remote switch will toggle the device either on or off and then the timer takes over for whatever is scheduled next.

Yes, you can. If you are using the camera for video, it has a 15 minute limit. After that ,it shuts off, unless you reset it.

Yes, so long as the power stays on it retains its clock and timer settings. The batteries are only to preserve settings in case of a power outage.

You know, I am not sure. That's a feature that I have never used. Also there is no mention in the manual that shows a timer function.So My answer would be no.Hope this helps.Bob

Yes, I believe that it can be programmed for time lapse photography at pre-set time intervals through existing firmware. I use it on my quadcopter.

This is a setting on your camera. look in your user manual under remote control shooting. It's a setting that I had to change on my camera. for Cannon Rebel t3i I had to change the setting from Single to "self timer/remote". I hope this helps

Randy you will have to set your camera to auto mode then set it for 2 seconds timer that's when the remote controls will work
